Copied from steam because I haven't heard back from a moderator in a few days, I want to make sure the file is sent successfully.

"Error in DisplayWeightsAndCostProcedure! Access violation at address 004F60F2 in module
'RTW.exe' read of adress 00000000

Happened after detailing ship, trying to set the height of visual item, pressed the height of superstructure I think and now it shows up with that every time I build a ship. First time playing the game so I don't know how to interpret this lol."

Pasting here because for some this website gives me a notice about not being able to upload the file because it's an invalid extension.

Thanks. Are you able to reproduce this from a save?

Using this specific save I was able to reproduce the errors by opening the ship in the designer, selecting a detail part like a mast or something, then selecting move layer up down a level, I will be asked if i want to do it to the 0 and 1 layer and click OK, then the error should occur. I made a mistake saying its the height of superstructure button when its actually the layer up down button.

Understood. Do you mind uploading your save to this forum with exact steps to reproduce?

Please upload your save by going to your Save folder here: "C:\USER\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\Rule the Waves 3" zipping up the correct save folder and posting it as a response here.

If you don't see any save folders in this location, please check your game's root folder Rule the Waves 3\Save. Due to some system setups the game will continue to save to this old location.

Open Rule the waves 3, load game 2 save file, there should be one single destroyer ship on the fleet page, right click to open designer for that specific ship, go to graphics tab in the designer, select a detail object such as a mast, then click move layer up down a level, observe errors, exit out of designer and re enter designer then observe other errors.

Tell me if I am missing any other details.

Thanks, we'll investigate.
